Every NFL team would like a player the caliber of\u00a0Myles Garrett.<\/p>\n
He’s a generational talent who can wreak havoc on opposing offenses and make a good defense a great one.<\/p>\n
With Garrett on Monday going public with his request to be traded from the Cleveland Browns after eight seasons, fanbases are now dreaming of the possibility that the former Defensive Player of the Year will suit up for their team.<\/p>\n
That includes supporters of the\u00a0Green Bay Packers. Former Packers offensive lineman Mark Tauscher, who won a Super Bowl in Green Bay and is in the team’s Hall of Fame, is one of them.<\/p>\n
“The Packers have an opportunity to make the big splash and I think they should go and do it,” Tauscher said Monday on his radio show, “Wilde and Tausch.”<\/p>\n
The Packers had a top-five defense and top-10 scoring defense last year and their 45 sacks were also in the top 10, but 15 of those came in two games against undermanned offensive lines.\u00a0What Green Bay needs, however, to take their defense to the next level and be more consistent against the best teams is someone like Garrett, Tauscher believes.<\/p>\n
“Myles Garrett is him,’ Tauscher said.<\/p>\n
Tauscher said Garrett is the type of player who offensive coordinators always need to account for when game-planning during the week. Tauscher said, right now, the Packers don’t have a player on the defensive line of that stature on their roster.<\/p>\n
That would change if Green Bay acquired Garrett, Tauscher added.<\/p>\n
And combine Garrett’s abilities at the line with Edgerrin Cooper at linebacker and Xavier McKinney in the secondary and Green Bay suddenly has playmakers all over the field.<\/p>\n
Likely easier said than done. But it’s that point in the Packers offseason when\u00a0anything seems possible to those on the outside.<\/p>\n
